Template talk:Infobox crew

Planned Upgrade
This template can do a lot more such as automatically categorizing character traits and skills. It could also categorize all pages that use it as crew. Many parameters such as "Row 3 Title" seem redundant since it's the same on every page. However just in case they are not redundant, I'm adding a maintenance category Category:Pages with Unexpected Infobox Crew Titles. Because categories are a low-priority update, it may take a few days for all irregular articles to appear in the category so I won't depreciate those parameters just yet.

 * CodeHydro... I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to do, but all of your coding and upgrades have been very worthwhile... and I look forward to what you have planned. The Infobox crew was one of the first templates I made when the site was having issues. I'm sure I could recode things better at this point, but that was truly a learning curve at the time! I have not heard from MilkN2Sugars since last Thursday. It doesn't seem like he got to the Scrubino extension yet. I Skyped him this morning with some other things as well and hope to hear from him soon. Jello (talk) 03:52, 24 May 2016 (CDT)


 * I did all the upgrades I could without mw:Extension:Scribunto. Pages using old version of infobox are placed in Category:Pages with depreciated Infobox crew parameters. — CodeHydro (msg) 19:03, 20 June 2016 (CDT)
 * Shouldn't Category:Crew only be required only once in the template?, and not dependent on crew's rarity?--Eeb3 (talk) 13:47, 21 June 2016 (CDT)
 * It's mostly just to eliminate the need for an extra #if namespace statement. The switch ensures it would only be categorized once. — CodeHydro (msg) 19:28, 21 June 2016 (CDT)

Minor Visual Error on Some Crew
There's a minor visual error that occurs when the CMD/DIP/etc. parameters are used for characters with only one or two skills, such as CMO 'Bones' McCoy or Mirror Tucker. For these instances of the template, the right side of the skills cell is missing the bright blue border line. Hopefully someone who knows wiki templating can take a look.

 * Good catch! It's fixed now. --Crunch (talk) 08:28, 27 August 2016 (CDT)
